Evil West Multi-Genre Discussion

Please use this thread to discuss this game's classification under the multi-genre system.

If you disagree with the current genres, please click the "Add genre disagreement" button below.

This game is currently classified exclusively as third person shooter, which is inaccurate and very misleading. While there are guns and the POV is third person, it's a very limited element of the gameplay, as the focus of combat is on melee combos. It would be like calling Devil May Cry a third person shooter, which is silly. This game plays very similarly to the Devil May Cry series, in which all 8 games are classified as hack & slash, and I think its genre should match it.
Please remove third person shooter and change Evil West to hack & slash.

You'll need to raise a formal disagreement via the button if you want the Genre Team to consider the suggestion.

I did that, and it had me post here...

Ahh, gotta hit that before AND after typing. Thanks!

Only 13000 players ...

I played and loved this game. I consider it an Action game. Yes, you can use melee but the majority of the time I spent (60/40) shooting. The best way to categorize it would actually be Action, but idc enough to register a disagreement. TA mislabels games all the time.

Even just calling it Action would make far more sense than Third Person Shooter lol. I'm curious if this will ever get looked at by the team since it's been a month of silence now...

All disagreements get looked at and addressed at some point by the genre team =)

third person shooter should definitely remain, it's a major part of the game from what I remember
